In Joshua we see that God's people are triumphing over the people around them. We see that in Acts as well. Notice the difference in the way the triumph. In Joshua God's people triumph by the sword in the power of the Holy Spirit. In Acts God's people triumph by the Word in the power of the Holy Spirit.
In this age of resurrection, Jesus has conquered death, hell and the grave. He is continuing to conquer the hearts and minds of people regardless of political, racial and economic boundaries, through the Word, as the Holy Spirit draws people to the Father through the Son. This is true victory. This is true freedom, freedom from judgment.
